Children'S Surgical Centre

Cambodia has gone through 30 years of war and genocide by the Pol Pot regime, in which educated citizens were targeted for execution, causing the medical system to suffer. Many of Cambodia's disabled live in extreme poverty with surgically treatable conditions. Dr. Jim Gollogly, a British-American surgeon, founded Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC) in 1998. Since that time, patient numbers and operations have grown exponentially. CSC aims to improve the quality of life for disabled poor people by providing free or low cost rehabilitation surgery. Integral to this mission is a program of training local surgeons and health workers, focusing on the development of sustainable surgical services for Cambodians.
